A lioness feasts on a buffalo killed the night before, as nearby villagers mourn its loss. More than 2,000 Maldhari people tend buffalo and other livestock within the 560-square-mile (1,450-square-kilometer) Gir Forest, which may have more lions than it can support. Lions here rely on livestock for a third of their diet.
